My Overflowing Inbox



Each time I open my inbox, there’s masses of emails there,
So all I can do for a moment is look at them and stare;
How could I have so many when I don’t have hundreds of friends
Who hourly have something to tell me – in fact I don’t have tens.
I look at them more closely, and start to feel slightly dumb
For not immediately seeing that the vast majority come
From firms and organisations that I’ve given my email to
And they’re the ones who daily keep on sending me something new.
Maybe it’s time I started to say I have no email address,
And messages in my inbox over time would be less and less.
